<div class='quotetop'>(SPARTAN-094)</div><div class='quotemain'>Ok, I have a question on Mountain and Valley folds do you fold Valley Down and Mountain Up right?</div>

No, you fold Valley Folds up so that it looks like a valley ( it slopes down)

Mountain Folds go down because they form a mountain shape

Just look here

Mountain folds are in Black
Valley Folds are in <span style="color:red">Red</span>

I see thanks for clearing things up

no problem, just remember to use 2 different pens so that it reminds you which way to fold :thumbsup:

Poor Iceman, little do you know that even with a sticky thread tutorial everyone will still PM you.

This is a nice tutorial, though. I scored my first armor with an X-Acto knife instead of a pen. I was pretty scared about cutting through the paper, but it never happened.

Ya, I just learned that.

I&#39;m still gettin hit PM&#39;s. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/disagree.gif[/img]

I use a metal ruler for my armor and I guess its a graphite ruler because it leaves big streaks all over what I'm folding.So make sure your ruler isn't graphite lol.
